Many, even those who are not touched by the topic in any sense, are getting excited about Trump's tariffs on Canada, Mexico, China and maybe tomorrow, the day or so, the EU.
First of all, we need to know one thing: a wagon or wagons, no matter how good and high-quality they are, cannot (unless it is downhill) roll on the rails if there is no locomotive. The American economy is the locomotive of the economy of all 3 Americas (North, Central, South), America is the undisputed locomotive of the world economy, with a gross national income that is a quarter and is going towards a third with constant growth from year to year.
From that fact originates exactly what I recently called "American leverage" which Trump is using very successfully for now.
As we can see, Panama evicts Chinese companies from the co-ownership of the canal that the Americans built, and on the construction of which tens of thousands of American workers worked - but also died.
Now, both Mexico and Canada commit to strengthening the borders so that fentanyl (this is something that nostr:npub1scljc42jwm576uufxwcwlmntqggy9utwz55a6a2hqjy9hpl7uxps4pzprv brought to my attention in one comment), a synthetic drug that is produced in China and transported to the USA via Canada and Mexico, and which creates an epidemic of evil in the USA (this epidemic costs the American economy, it is estimated, 500 billion dollars per year) thereby confirming and justifying the reason for this "tariffization" by Trump.
